Classic Mango Smoothie

A mango blended drink is the ideal combination of flavour and health. Blended with pulp of ripe mangoes, chilled milk or yogurt, and a few ice cubes, this is a creamy drink that is satisfying and refreshing. Added sugar is not necessary when the mangoes are sweet enough. To gain an added health benefit, pour in chia seeds or some soaked almonds.

Aam Panna

A traditional summer favourite, aam panna is made from raw mangoes and is known for its cooling properties. The beverage is spiced with roasted cumin powder, black salt and mint which imparts a tangy and slightly spicy flavour. It is high in electrolytes and helps to prevent dehydration and heatstroke.

Mango Coconut Water Refresher

This refreshing and thirst quenching beverage blends fresh mango puree and coconut water. It is naturally sweet, contains low calories and suitable to people who would prefer to drink something a lot healthier than drinks that are high in sugar. Coconut water also increases hydration and mango provides flavour and nutrients.

Mango Mint Lassi

This is a variation of the classic drink lassi, and it is a combination of mango pulp and yogurt, fresh mint leaves and a pinch of cardamom. Yoghurt probiotics help in digestion and mint provides a cooling effect. It is a refreshing as well as an invigorating drink and serves well after a big meal or on hot afternoons.

Mango Iced Tea

This fruity iced tea is a must-have in case you like iced tea. Prepare black or green tea, cool it down and add fresh mango puree and a small amount of honey or lemon juice. Use on ice to make a cool and slightly caffeinated beverage. It is an excellent method to stay alert and yet enjoy the tropical taste of mango.
